What is Planned Giving?

Planned giving is the process of considering your unique circumstances to develop a strategy that fulfills your charitable goals as well as your financial needs. Often, a planned gift can result in additional income for the rest of your life. Always, a planned gift is an opportunity to establish a lasting legacy at Cal State East Bay to benefit students and faculty for generations to come.

In the Office of Planned Gifts, our goal is to assist you in exploring your legacy. Planning a gift to Cal State East Bay is a personal process and one that can have tremendous value to the university as well as to you.
